commit aingitdb validate [--path=PATH] [--only=definition|records] [--from-commit=SHA] [--to-commit=SHA]
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--path=PATH |
Path to the database directory. Defaults to the current working directory. |
--only=VALUE |
Validate only definition or records. Omit to validate both. |
--from-commit=SHA |
Validate only records changed since this commit. |
--to-commit=SHA |
Validate only records up to this commit. |
Validates the database schema and records in the .ingitdb.yaml file. By default, checks both
the collection definitions and every record against its schema. Use --only to validate just
the definitions or just the records. With --from-commit / --to-commit, only files changed
in that commit range are checked (see Validator docs).
Exit code is 0 on success, non-zero on any validation error. Validation messages report
record counts per collection (e.g., "All 42 records are valid for collection: users" or
"38 out of 42 records are valid for collection: users").
Examples:
# 📘 Validate the current directory (schema + records)
ingitdb validate
# 📘 Validate a specific path
ingitdb validate --path=/path/to/your/db
# 🔍 Validate only collection definitions
ingitdb validate --only=definition
# 🔍 Validate only records (skip schema validation)
ingitdb validate --only=records
# 🔁 Fast CI mode: validate only records changed between two commits
ingitdb validate --from-commit=abc1234 --to-commit=def5678
# 🔁 Validate records changed in a commit range (skip schema validation)
ingitdb validate --only=records --from-commit=abc1234 --to-commit=def5678
